    • (2) Each grant report required by paragraph (1) shall include—
      • (A) a summary of the activities carried out with such grant;

    • (4) The Attorney General may waive the requirement of an assessment in paragraph (2)(C) for a State or specially qualified unit of local government, or in paragraph (3)(B) for a unit of local government, if the Attorney General determines that—
      • (A) the nature of the activities are such that assessing their effectiveness would not be practical or insightful;

      • (C) the resources available to the State or unit are such that carrying out the assessment would pose a financial hardship on the State or unit.
  • (b) Not later than 120 days after the last day of each fiscal year for which 1 or more grants are awarded under this subchapter, the Attorney General shall submit to Congress a report, which shall include—
    • (1) a summary of the information provided under subsection (a);
